I have to say, the only titles I do not care for out of that bunch are the Animal Crossing, Band Brothers, and Big Brain Accademy. Other than that I am a HUGE fan of their work. Most notables for me are the Wii-series, Marios, including Kart, DKJB, the Zeldas, and the Brain Age and Nintendogs series. But wow - this is a very gifted studio, and look at all of that (mega)hit software. The driving force behind DS and Wii, no doubt.

How are you and EAD doing? Inspired or jaded? Somewhere in between?

IGN: The holiday Wii lineup looks thin for the hardcore crowd. We see this. Gamers see this. What, if anything, is Nintendo planning to address it?

Oh good, I am neither a gamer or hardcore. Saves me from having to be IGNorant.

I still think they should have stayed with the name Nintendo Revolution instead of Nintendo Wii.

Somebody set up us the bomb.
